Ch 16
DREAM
"Mommy, I love you" a little girl with blonde hair says.
"Mommy" I say confused looking around at the all white surroundings.
"You're my mommy" the little girl says hugging my leg.
"I'm sorry I'm not" I say kneeing down to her height.
"Yes you are my dear" a voice says from behind me and I turn to see Grandma Trix there looking beautiful.
"Trix" I say confused. Where am I? Am I dead? What is going on?
"Hello my dear" she says hugging me.
"How is this possible, you're dead? I know you are. I was at your funeral. Did I die too, oh no what about the baby and Tristan and Mom? They need me. I can't be dead" I states confused.
"We're angels my dear, we're allowed to speak to the living when we need to. You are not dead so calm down. You are dreaming" she says turning my around to watch the little girl playing on the swings.
"She looks like you my dear, just as smart too but with Tristan's hair" Trix says and I feel this pull to the little girl.
"Mommy, push me" she smiles and I want to cry.
"Can I" I question Trix and she nods.
"Okay sweetheart hold on" I say pushing her gently. I never want whatever this is to end. I want to take her home with me and show her to Tristan. He would love her.
"My dear" someone says and I look to see someone I never expected.
"Let Trix do that, we need to talk" she says and I nod. I walk away and to the bench with the woman that I know Tristan loved more than his own mother.
"I gather you know who I am" she questions holding my head.
"You're Lizzy" I say and she smiles.
"Yes, and I need you do a few thing for me?" she says and I nod glancing over to the girl on the swings.
"First, you cannot tell anyone that you saw us, Tristan will understand since he was here already" she says and I look confused.
"What" I say.
"Second, he loves you just like my Janlan loved me. That's once in a lifetime love that I will soon have back with me. Tristan is my angel dear, you need to take care of him for me" she says and I don't like what she says. Tristan can't lose Janlan it will crush him.
"Are you saying" I try to question her.
"Third, you need to give that child a name; she cannot rest in peace without one. Something that represents what she is to you and Tristan.
"An angel" I say without thinking.
"She loves you and need not to worry about her. She has plenty of angels around her to keep her safe and loved until you join us. Do not place your life on hold because of what happened. Move on and love this little boy like you would her" Lizzy says touching my stomach.
"Mommy" the little girl say coming closer and I look, Auntie Hope says I have to go" she says hugging me. "I love you mommy" she says and I cry.
"I love you too my Angel" I say kissing her cheek before Lizzy stands up and takes her hand.
"We all love you my dear" Trix says hugging me and cry.
"Take care of yourself Rory and your family" Aunt Hope says taking my daughter and walking to the while abyss that formed.
"Rory, I have secret and I will tell you. Go to villa and check the back vault, my private vault, inside will be something that I want you to have. You are the love my grandson's life and I want you to have it. Janlan will agree" she says hugging me and walking away. I look around and see white. Now what?
"Rory" I here and turn to the voice. "Mare" I hear more seductive.
"Tris" I say closing my eyes and I can feel him kissing my neck.
"Time to get up" he says and open my eyes and we're in my childhood bedroom sleeping in the bed.
"Hi" I smile brightly at him.
"Hey" he says pushing some hair out of my face.
"Having a good dream because you were extra hard trying to get up" he questions and I smile.
"The best dream in the world and I know what we need to do today" I say getting up and heading to the closet.
"Wanna fill me in" He asks me.
"You'll see" I smile getting clothes and heading to the shower.
An hour later, we pull up to the cemetery after a stop at the florist for baby pink roses, and three bouquets of lilies and he looks at me. "Why are we here" he questions confused.
"Closer" I state getting out and he follows me. I walk into the main building and head to the desk.
"Can I help you" the woman says.
"Yes, I need to change a headstone" I state and Tristan looks stunned.
"Rory what are you doing" he questions.
"You will need to see the manager, please wait" she says walking up the steps to the manager's office.
"Tris, we need to do this and today. We need to name our daughter to let her be peaceful and then she'll always be with us. We can't keep her to ourselves. We need closer for the future. We need to do this" I state and he smiles at me.
"You had it too didn't you" he says and all I do is smile at him and he hugs me. "I love you Rory" he says kissing me softly.
"I love you too Tristan" I say as the woman comes back. We spent an hour with the manager and ordering a new headstone for the baby. We head out to the grave site and I love how the sun is shining on the headstone as we approach.
"Hey baby girl" I say kneeling down and Tristan does too.
"Mommy and I love you so much Angel" he says and take his head.
"That's your name baby girl. Angel Hope Dugray. It seems fitting since you are our angel" I say and Tristan kisses my temple.
"Stay here" I say and stand up walking over to Lizzy's grave.
"Thank you for everything. You are an incredible woman like your boys have always told me. Take care of my angel and I'll take care of yours" I say lying the flowers down and continuing to Trix and Hope's.
"Want to explain all that" he questions as I come back to Angel's grave.
"No, I just needed to do it" I say.
"Angel thinks we're having a boy" he says looking at me.
"Well she's pretty smart, maybe she's right Tris" I say fixing the flowers to perfection on her grave. He just watches me and smirk at him. You know don't you" he states helping me up. "Maybe or maybe Angel does" I laugh.
"So in three weeks, we'll bring everyone back" he says holding my hand back to the car.
"It's what's right and by then we might know if Angel was right" I smirk before handing him the keys to drive back to the city.
Three weeks later
"Kid, you okay" Mom questions coming to stand next to me by the tree near Angel's grave.
"I feel like I'm burying her all over again" I say and she hugs me.
"You're not though, you're giving her what she always should have had" She says.
"Tristan had the death certificate and birth certificate changed" I say and she looks at me.
"An official Dugray then" she smiles and I spot something over her shoulder. What are they doing here? I'm shocked, surprised and stunned.
Excuse me" I say walking towards the Yale gang.
"What are you all doing here" I question. I know they probably read the announcement but I never thought they would come.
"We're here because it's right RG" Steph says hugging me.
"Thank you" I say hugging Rosemary and Juliet too. I look around and realize the boys aren't here.
"They're coming" Rosemary says as I see Finn's expedition pull up with the guys. They all get out and it's Logan who come closer first.
"Look at you" Logan says coming closer. "Hi" I say unsure how we do this.
"I told you months ago, you'll never lose us, you're part of us" he says hugging me and hold on for a moment.
"You're pregnant" he exclaims looking at me.
"About 14 weeks" I say and he smiles. Everyone else looks stunned and confused.
"You deserve it Ace" he says hugging me again.
"How are you so calm about this" Colin states.
"Because it's what right Colin, Ace and I will always have a special place for one another, but she's happy and that's all I can ask for. Not to mention he's your cousin" Logan says.
"Are you" I say hoping he is. "Getting there, just hoping that I don't lose one of my best friends though" he says as Tristan joins us.
"She'll never let that happen, Logan" he says.
"What about you two, can you two deal with one another" I question.
"Yes" they say in unison.
"Good" I smile.
"Love, I must say you look bloody brilliant" Finn says breaking the honestly streak going.
"Thanks Finn" I say hugging me.
"They want to start" Tristan says and I glance back to see everyone taking their seats. I walk away with everyone following me. The service is beautiful with everyone there that means everything to us. I glance to the side and swore I saw Lizzy, Trix and Hope standing there in the distance. This is finally right.
So there it is the closer of the past for them. If you didn't read the first part, Rory couldn't name the baby before they buried her. But now that things are finally right, she can and it makes the baby they lost closer to them both. Review, i would love to hear what you thought!
